Trading Idea

FX Capitalist is a scalper all over the day with so tight stop loss (L version => 4 pips, S version => 2 pips) and a more higher take profit target (L version => 13 pips, S version => 11 pips). The losing trades are ordinary predominant, but the final result is still good.

Risk

Forex trading can involve the risk of loss beyond your initial deposit. It is not suitable for all investors and you should make sure you understand the risks involved, seeking independent advice if necessary.

Forex accounts typically offer various degrees of leverage and their elevated profit potential is counterbalanced by an equally high level of risk. You should never risk more than you are prepared to lose and you should carefully take into consideration your trading experience.
